Respuesta :

4 workers= 3 hours
1 worker = 12 hours
6 workers = 2 hours
Answer is 2hours

Answer:

The correct answer is B. 2 hours.  It will take 2 hours for 6 people to paint the room.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 workers = 3 hours

1 worker = 12 hours

1/12 = each person works for one hour

6/12 = each person works for 2 hours

4/12 = each person works for 3 hours

Therefore, B is the correct answer.  Hope this helps:)
